temperature at an exhaust manifold port is an indica-
tion of no fuel to the cylinder. This can possibly be an
indication of a nozzle with a defect. Extra high tem-
perature at an exhaust manifold port can be an indi-
cation of too much fuel to the cylinder, also caused by
a nozzle with a defect.
The most common defects found with the fuel
injection nozzles are:
1. Carbon on tip of the nozzle or in the nozzle
orifice.
2. Orifice wear.

Be sure to use clean SAE J967 Calibration oil
when tests are made. Dirty test oil will damage
components of fuel injection nozzles. The tem-
perature of the test oil must be 18 to 24°C (65 to
75°F) for good test results.
Order calibration oil by part number, in the quan-
tities needed, according to the information that
follows:
6V6068 Calibration Fluid. 18.9 liter (5 U.S. gal.)
6V6067 Calibration Fluid. 208.2 liter (55 U.S.
gal.)
